Enid Mary Blyton (1897–1968) was an English author of children's books.
Born in South London, Blyton was the eldest of three children, and showed an early interest in music and reading. She was educated at St. Christopher's School, Beckenham, and - having decided not to pursue her music - at Ipswich High School, where she trained as a kindergarten teacher. She taught for five years before her 1924 marriage to editor Hugh Pollock, with whom she had two daughters. This marriage ended in divorce, and Blyton remarried in 1943, to surgeon Kenneth Fraser Darrell Waters. She died in 1968, one year after her second husband.
Blyton was a prolific author of children's books, who penned an estimated 800 books over about 40 years. Her stories were often either children's adventure and mystery stories, or fantasies involving magic. Notable series include: The Famous Five, The Secret Seven, The Five Find-Outers, Noddy, The Wishing Chair, Mallory Towers, and St. Clare's.
According to the Index Translationum, Blyton was the fifth most popular author in the world in 2007, coming after Lenin but ahead of Shakespeare.

This might be one of my favourite Enid Blyton books. It's sheer magic!
Jack, Philip, Dinah and Lucy-Ann (not to mention Kiki) are all set to go on a plane trip to their friend, secret agent Bill Cunningham's house for a few days. But a mix-up sees them boarding the wrong plane and falling headlong into another adventure - this time in a beautiful, abandoned, war-torn valley - involving a couple of escaped prisoners, a secret cave, a hostage, a daring rescue mission, a map and lost treasure!
Seriously, who can come up with something like that AND make it believable? They don't make authors like Enid Blyton anymore.

This was a very good book, but I wish that some of the questions that I had were answered. Maybe the book could have been a couple of chapters longer. There are no illustrations, but the descriptions were great. My favourite characters were Kiki, Philip, Bill and Jack. I liked this book because it was an adventure story. I would recommend it for ages 8 and above.

The Valley of Adventure is the third book in the series. This starts differently from the other two books. There is no relaxed fun and slow build up. It has a rapid start with Jack, Phillip, Lucy Ann and Dinah finding themselves marooned in a strange valley in the middle of nowhere with criminal elements for company. They have to figure out a way either to get out of the place or survive there while remaining out of sight of the criminals. This story kind of reminded me of Robinson Crusoe, one of the favorite reads of my childhood. Of course, the children find easier solutions for their food and clothing needs. But the idea of being in the lap of nature separated from rest of humanity is similar. The settings are much more exotic than the other books. They were quite close to their home in the first two books. In this book, they are not even in their own country – they are somewhere in the middle of Europe. That way the exoticism index is taken a few notches up.
Like in the other books, here also we have secret caves and passages. We also have a treasure hunt and we are introduced to a magical place like the caves of Aladdin and Ali Baba. This is one of the specialties of this one. This book however does not have any birds for Jack nor any interesting animals for Phillip. All he finds is a lizard that doesn’t do much except serving to irritate Dinah. Of course, Jack also finds a hen towards the end of the story. But a hen is not exactly and ornithologist’s delight. Talking of the hen, I found all the fuss the children made about the hen kind of strange and inconsistent. The children love the hen so much and fear the criminals don’t kill and eat it. But the children themselves are meat eaters and definitely eat chicken. This is one dichotomy I find in all Enid Blyton books. The characters seem to love animals so much and still eat the very same animals. And she does not even try to explain it in a philosophical way like in certain Native Indian lore.
Unlike the earlier two books, here the children manage to take on the villains on their own might without depending on their detective friend. However, they are aided by luck. While the children do attempt dangerous feats, the danger levels don’t peak suddenly like in the other books. This one maintains a steady pace through and through.
There is of course the usual fun around Kiki the parrot’s mix up of words and phrases. And food and eating as always occupies a place of importance, more so since lack of food happened to be one of the major initial concerns. I think Enid Blyton does a fabulous joy of bringing in food as a relief in the middle of intense scenes. In the real life also, there is a tendency to eat tasty food as a stress reliever. So this works really well.
I have seen it mentioned somewhere that Enid Blyton usually does not mention the war much in her books and also usually does not clearly specify the time the stories are set in. In this one however she mentions the war and that second world war is long over when this story is taking place.
Overall, I think this a more of a pure play adventure story than the earlier books and does not have much of the warmer fuzzier elements. Also, since there aren’t too many people here, we don’t see too much of the children’s character coming out in this one. It is mostly just action. That way it scores on setting and pace but loses out on some of the other aspects. So I would not have this story in running for the best book of this series.

This book really captured me: the plot gets under way very quickly, and moves at pace. The children have to be quire resourceful and I enjoyed the historical aspect in regards to the treasure.

I cannot say enough good things about this book. The only reason you would have to not want to read is if you were interested in reading the previous 2 books in the series. Because you should read those first. Anyway. I read this with my 10 year old. And what a joy it was. Kids on adventure. Enid Blyton knows how to tell a good tale. This one set in a mystery valley accessible only by plane. I can picture this valley now, waterfall and all. As soon as we were done with this book we dove right into the next one. Can't wait to see a new Adventure unfold and a new mystery solved.

An excellent addition to the series. The children spend a lot of time on their own in this one. The valley is a real enigma and you're always wondering how they are going to get out of there. The usual antics from Kiki add to the story. I really enjoy her part in the books. It's Bill to the rescue as usual. A very good read.

There was a tiny library near where my family lived in the country and this was the only book I would ever borrow from it. I loved it so much and read it often. Good times. <3

Quite by accident, the children are carried away by airplane to an isolated valley in central Europe. There they hide from the bad guys, find a hidden treasure, and find a way to contact the outside world just in time. This was my favorite of the series when I was a kid. The valley seemed almost idyllic to me.
My favorite youth read of 2009. Read 11 times.

Oh my god, IT WAS SO EXCITING! *flails madly* Why did I not read this series when I was younger? Why did I not even know about it until Alex gave me the books? Oh well, more excitement for now I guess. ;) I'm reading through the whole lot and I have five left now, and four of those are new to me. :D

Mais uma vez, os quatro amigos metem-se numa aventura, que apesar de todos os perigos, termina tudo em bem.

The story begins with the children being accidentally abducted by actual criminals (maybe more correctly by themselves). Not just ordinary villains either — these are men with guns, planes, and sinister foreign accents (naturally). Instead of traumatising them the whole thing is treated like an impromptu field trip, so they all have a sleep on the flight to wherever they don't know they are going.
They’re dumped in a remote valley where, of course, they discover a hoard of treasure from the Second World War guarded by an Austrian couple and an elderly chicken. (No one has told them the war is over, because the road into the valley was bombed and made impassable, causing the valley to be only accessible by plane. It does leave the question as to why the man who positioned the couple there didn't use a plane to get to the valley and tell them or even to get the treasure back. It's unclear how long the couple were there, but it's longer than the average chicken's lifespan.
The criminals are hopeless as you can only expect, easily outwitted by children. Once again the children themselves display the sort of survival skills that make Bear Grylls look underprepared. They scale cliffs, find the best hidden cave possible and convenient secret passages (one of my favourite secret passages i must admit - always fancied finding one that leads behind a waterfall).
Adventure, treasure, and a parrot who deserves her own spin-off — what more could you want?

Hab das Buch als Kind aus der Bücherei ausgeliehen, jedoch nicht geschafft fertig zu lesen, bevor es zurück musste. Letztendlich wollte ich über all die Jahre aber wissen, wo die Kinder eigtl. gelandet waren und wie es ausging...
Aus heutiger Sicht finde ich den (Schreib-)Stil leider schlimm. Es werden am laufenden Band Urängste (Verhungern, Verdursten, Verlassen werden) verwendet, ausgiebig Stereotypen genutzt und eine Person ist entweder gut, weil sie hilft oder böse weil sie raucht, schwarze Haare hat oder einfach nur böse schaut.
Daher: Gut für mich, dass ich das Buch nach all den Jahren doch noch (zu Ende) gelesen haben, aber ähnlich wie die ersten Bände von Tintin definitiv nichts für Kinder ohne eine kritische Erläuterung.
Alles in allem eher aus der Zeit gefallen, was für‘s Archiv und müsste echt nicht mehr verkauft werden...

This is the third instalment in the Adventure series.
Jack, Philip, Dinah, Lucy-Ann and Kiki the parrot board a night-time flight with their friend Bill, only they don't. Instead the board the wrong aircraft and find themselves in a forgotten valley, full of secrets, mysteries, and maybe even treasure!
I adore Blyton's adventures! This one had quite a convoluted plot, for a read aimed at a much younger audience, and felt like a more advanced storyline than those that featured in books one and two of this series, which I was not complaining about. There were initial portions were I genuinely did not know where the answers to the mysteries lay. I come to children's fiction for pure escapism, much fun, and a dose of nostalgia, so finding a concrete plot was a little added bonus for me!

I liked how the first two are things that could conceivably have happened and this one has the children dropped somewhere in Europe because they get on the wrong plane with a treasure and bad guys who conveniently speak English frequently enough for the children to understand.
This was the best one yet.

Το πιο αγαπημένο βιβλίο της παιδικής μου ηλικίας. Το είχα διαβάσει δεκάδες φορές (όπως και όλη τη σειρά βέβαια) και άλλες τόσες στην μικρή μου αδερφή. Έχουμε ταξιδέψει με τη Μπλάιτον σε κόσμους γεμάτους περιπέτειες, πολλή αγωνία και τη μαγεία του να κολυμπάς στη θάλασσα της φαντασίας...

September 15, 2020I read this to my little brother and secretly enjoyed it. It’s interesting how Enid Blyton could completely captivate me as a 10 year old and still capture my attention as a 21 year old. That’s a sign he’s a great author... or that i’m still a child, but let’s not get into that lol.

The Valley of Aventure by Enid Blyton is about four kids who live and breathe on a new adventure, which seems to follow wherever they go! Philip, Dinah, Lucy-Ann and Jack are going for a night flight on Bill's plane and soon find themselves on an amazing adventure. Where is Bill? Who are the two strange pilots, and what secret treasure hidden in the lonely valley where the children land? A tale of excitement and thrill. Adventure appears wherever Philip, Dinah, Lucy-Ann and Jack go – not forgetting Kiki the parrot, who’s never far behind! The third book in the adventure series.
Summary
This story starts off with Philip, Dinah, Lucy-Ann and Jack getting excited for a night ride in Bill’s plane. When the children had boarded the plane, waiting for Bill to come they heard a gunshot and two strange men came aboard. After a while, they concluded that they were on the wrong plane! Afraid the four poor children sat there scared and tried not to make a sound. When the plane finally lands, they find themselves in the middle of a desolate and lush valley and decide to go out for some exploring. They need to know where they are so that they can get home, but where is home and are those two strangers, friends or foe. The story then follows their survival instincts and the way they feed themselves. Day by day the reader finds out more about the two mysterious men and how they know Bill. Before they know it they are caught up in another adventure...
Review
The valley of adventure is the third book in the adventure series by Enid Blyton and one of my personal favourites. This story follows the trail on four children and the way they are trapped in the valley. Enid Blyton has laid it out beautifully to the lush description of the scenery to their survival to the mysterious men. It all there. To me, this book is one to read in one sitting. They way Enid has written this makes you get lost in the adventure. I read this book a long time ago, so when it came to writing this review, I had to re-read it and doing so, fell in love with it all over again. If you read my other reviews, you know that I am a big fan of mystery novels and this book has satisfied my tastes. I was guessing to the very end! Each child has a different and unique personality, yet when they work as a team, they are so synced, it's fascinating reading about the way they ration foods or the risks they are willing to take at such a young age. To my, The Valley of Adventure is one of the first classics I read. Enid Blyton has created such a beautiful book I have enjoyed reading through and through. Even though I love all characters equally, Kiki the parrot is my personal favourite! Adding some very interesting comedy, and reading it plays out is a real pleasure.

This adventure story is extremely exciting and perilous. The setting is superb, with plenty of hidden places and secret passages, all vividly and wonderfully realised.
There is even historical context to get into, as the story is set firmly in the aftermath of the Second World War (thus rendering any misguided attempts to modernise the text or illustrations utterly pointless) and the children find themselves searching for a cache of Nazi treasure.
All four children get their moments in the spotlight here. Fans of Jack will enjoy his tussle with a South American heavy and subsequent capture of all the bad guys. Philip lovers will revel in his thrilling and dangerous rescue plan. Even Dinah and Lucy-Ann get to fool the baddies by taking off their clothes and capering about, thus saving the boys from imminent capture.
This and The Castle of Adventure are definitely Enid Blyton's two greatest works in my opinion.

This is such a good book!!! I really enjoyed how much action and suspense there was. In my opinion, the Valley of Adventure has always been the best in the Adventure series. Enid uses an amazing style of writing. I believe that this book, although wrote many years ago, is still very good for adventure loving kids of today. Any kid that loves adventures and mysteries would love this, and it's a good way to get them off video games. The characters are packed with character. This series to this day is the only series that has made me laugh out loud. Kiki is hilarious, and makes the story 10x better!

When I started reading this book, I thought this was a book that I had not read. But as the story progressed, I started having this feeling about having read this story. Especially the caves part of the story looked familiar. I am still not sure if I have read this book earlier.
Anyway, it was a great read. One of the best books written by Enid Blyton. As awesome as her Famous Five books are. It was suspenseful and adventurous. Can't wait to read all the books in this series soon!

A rollicking adventure. The Kiki bits have my children cackling but be warned this is darker than some of the other Enid Blyton books. The children are trapped in a valley with some nasty men who are after Nazi treasure. A prisoner (not the children) is hit by the gang and starved. Jack himself is in a physical fight with a man and also ties an unconscious man to a tree and abandons him. I did not like this as much as her others but Kiki is as always great.
